Many of us have a garage full of kids bikes that only get ridden in the summer. Perhaps an e-bike where the motor assembly makes changing the wheel difficult. Maybe we want a great way to get fit or an alternative way to get to work.

The only problem with bikes is that the tyres can go flat.

A loss of pressure in the tyre will hugely impact the effort required or the performance of your e-bike batteries. Our comfortable real rubber tyres give you back control and feel just like pneumatic tyres.

- Always ready when you are. Leave them in a garage for months and when you want to go for a ride, the Geckos are ready!

- Guaranteed range performance. Geckos can't lose pressure, a full e-bike charge will always take you the distance you expect.

- Never be late to work. With Gecko you know the tyres can't let you down.

- Changing a flat is hard. Especially on an e-bike, changing a flat tyre can be difficult and time consuming. Time to stop worrying about it.

- Great all weather performance. Geckos are made from real rubber, as tyres should be. They won't lose grip or slip in the rain or mud like some plastic tyres can.

- No other puncture proof tyre comes close in terms of ride comfort or performance.

Traditional rubber, textile and metal tyres are very hard to recycle due to the difficulty in separating the different materials, so unless they become a cool belt, there is not much you can do with them.

* obviously only valid If the tyres are kept at the correct pressure without any punctures.

Our customers immediately notice a great improvement of our tyres over other puncture proof tyres with many saying they are as nice as traditional pneumatics. The patented Gecko cellular rubber now comes in two 'flavours'; a softer more comfortable ride, perfect for e-bikes and a slighty firmer faster one for regular bicycles.

Comfort Geckos: (Perfect for e-bikes)

26” x 1.75" (to fit wheel rim size: ETRTO 559 x 18 & ETRTO 559 x 19)

700 x 40 (to fit wheel rim size: ETRTO 622 x 18 & ETRTO 622 x 19)

Regular Geckos: (Perfect for any bike)

26” x 1.5" (to fit wheel rim size: ETRTO 559 x 19 & ETRTO 559 x 20)

26” x 1.75” (to fit wheel rim size: ETRTO 559 x 18 & ETRTO 559 x19)

700 x 40 (to fit wheel rim size: ETRTO 559 x 18 & ETRTO 559 x 19)

These new Regular Gecko tyres have been developed with standard peddle bicycles in mind however they would also be excellent for ebikes (be it a slightly firmer ride than the Comfort Geckos but a ride as you would expect from a well pumped up pneumatic tyre) . We have started manufacturing the first Regular Gecko tyres in the 700 x 40, and 26 x 1.75 sizes (with other sizes planned for later in 2018).

The first Regular Gecko tyre tests are confirming that comfort is still excellent and the grip and other ride qualities are as you would expect from a good quality rubber tyre.

Now whether you have a standard or electric bike you can be reassured you will never get a puncture if you choose Gecko and have this with a true ride quality . More news on new sizes to follow soon.
